Adjustable Strap-Lock for securing container lids to the base container in closed position - A one piece adjustable strap-lock assembly (which we will call “Strap-Lock” hereinafter) for securing the lid of a container such as garbage bin with a minimum of two side handles to the base container in a closed position. The lid of the container may be fully detachable or hinged on one side of the container and covers the top opening of the base container. The purpose of the invention is to provide an assembly to prevent opening or separating the lid altogether from the base container by wind, or by domestic or wild animals such as dogs, raccoons, bears etc., until the Strap-Lock is manually disengaged. The length of the assembly is adjustable so that it can be used for household containers/garbage bins of most sizes available in the marketplace. This invention uses one strap made of non-stretch flexible material such as plastic or polypropylene of length longer than the distance between the side handles of the garbage bin, a buckle for strap tightening and release function such as side release buckle, two hooks that are appropriately sized to latch on to the side handles of the garbage bin and a strap loop. The Strap-Lock provides a locking system that is one piece construction, easy to use and store, adjustable to fit to containers of various sizes, and does not require any installation or any modification to be made (such as drilling holes) to the container itself

HARDWARE INSTRUCTIONS TO ACCELERATE TABLE-DRIVEN MATHEMATICAL FUNCTION EVALUATION - A set of instructions for implementation in a floating-point unit or other computer processor hardware is disclosed herein. In one embodiment, an extended-range fused multiply-add operation, a first look-up operation, and a second look-up operation are each embodied in hardware instructions configured to be operably executed in a processor. These operations are accompanied by a table which provides a set of defined values in response to various function types, supporting the computation of elementary functions such as reciprocal, square, cube, fourth roots and their reciprocals, exponential, and logarithmic functions. By allowing each of these functions to be computed with a hardware instruction, branching and predicated execution may be reduced or eliminated, while also permitting the use of distributed instructions across a number of execution units.

ENHANCED UTILIZATION OF REAL POWER GENERATING CAPACITY OF DISTRIBUTED GENERATOR (DG) INVERTERS AS STATCOM - Systems, methods, and devices relating to the provision of system control support in the form of reactive power support or voltage control support to power transmission or distribution networks using inverter based power generation facilities that are coupled to the power transmission or distribution networks. An inverter based power generation facility, such as a photovoltaic based solar farm or a wind farm, can task all or a portion of its inverter capacity to provide reactive power support or voltage control support to the power transmission or distribution network. This invention applies to the operation of PV solar systems anytime during the day (even during peak power generation times) and other inverter based DGs during the entire 24-hour period. The power generation facility disconnects at least one of its power generation modules from the power transmission or distribution network and makes available required inverter capacity for providing system control support.
